Chapter 174 Food Raising Conference

People who have always had a certain temper, and the more abilities, the bigger the temper they are. Wu Youke, the younger the young man, was even more so, and directly challenged Gu Zhenhua.

Gu Zhenhua really has no temper. This little old man can't kill you, but he has the ability to save you. In an era of such backward medicine, if you want to gain stability, you cannot do without these miracle doctors.

"Mr. Wu, what you said is reasonable. I also know that many coolies were wronged, but I was forced to do so!"

"Mr., this man can't understand. Since they are wronged, let it go. It's natural."

"Mr. Wu, these coolies are not doing other work, but building roads, city walls, river embankments, castles, and fortifications. Do you think these things can be repaired without repairing them?"

Wu Youke frowned and nodded: "Henan has just encountered a flood, and the troops have been in trouble for many years. It is indeed time to be repaired. But you can call for labor service or pay for labor. I am not asking them for mercy. Half a month ago, I went from Shaanxi to the south, but was caught by these people and entered the bandit's nest in a mess. To be honest, the people are really too hard. Only those who defect to Li Jiyu can eat and drink enough. Other people have nothing to eat. During the flood, I have seen someone eat Guanyin soil and swell to death. Some people eat and eat, which is terrible!"

Gu Zhenhua also nodded: "Mr. Wu, the people are indeed pitiful, but I have my last resort. When establishing a military farm, I stipulated the amount of corvee service, and it was the time for autumn so as to not lose the big picture because of small things. As for the money to recruit, I still have money, but there are too many places to spend money. I can't take it out."

"Then can't you wait? When the people have finished sowing in autumn, and when they have money, they will repair these things?"

"I can wait, but the Qing Dynasty cannot wait. The Qing army has been mobilized frequently recently. It seems that they want to destroy Li Zicheng, but Henan cannot escape. My master entered Henan, killed the powerful, trained new recruits, and built fortifications, just to resist the Qing Dynasty's journey south. Time is too late, and some people have to be sacrificed."

When Wu Youke heard this, he was also silent. The old man's fist was tightly clenched, and the blue veins in his hand were exposed. After a while, he sighed: "Mr. Dayuan Drinking's prescription can be given to you, but I also asked Duke to allow me to go south."

"This is not possible!" Gu Zhenhua hurriedly stopped Wu Youke, "Mr. Wu, you are a miracle doctor, I still need your help."

"Oh, Duke, I only know how to save people. I don't understand your power and plots, nor do I want to understand them. I don't know whether what you said is true or false, whether it is for the sake of the people, or whether it is obsessed with profit. So I go south and rely on my conscience to save one, and ask the Duke to approve it."

"Mr. Wu, I don't think I'll let you go south."

"Hahaha, Duke. If you have power and power, you can naturally keep me, but I can't give you a prescription or help you see a patient. I will do what I say!"

Wu Youke said and shook his sleeves. He turned his head and gave Gu Zhenhua only the back of his head.

"Old stubborn donkey!" Gu Zhenhua said in his heart, holding back his anger, and Gu Zhenhua laughed and said, "Mr. Wu, if you really want to help the people, you should stay in the army. I am already preparing to set up a military medical department to specialize in medical and epidemic prevention. If you stay in the army, what you have learned can benefit the people. Isn't it much better than saving one or two people!"

"What is this military medical department? It's like the Imperial Hospital, just treating you, Duke Ji, right?"

"Of course not. The world is plague and the army is a severely affected area. Isn't it worth studying? My Lord plans to provide 30,000 research funds every year and allocate 500,000 taels of specialized procurement of medicinal materials. Not only the army, but also the people under my rule, the Military Medical Department is responsible for their health. Mr. Wu, with your medical skills, you are the director's position!"

Wu Youke immediately laughed, "Dude, what I said is quite attractive, but I don't believe that I can make a name for myself in the army. I will not return home in the countryside, and I will play with my grandchildren, treat my illness and write books. I have nothing to ask for."

This Wu is smelly and hard, but Gu Zhenhua doesn't dare to do anything to him!

"Mr. Wu, it seems that if you don't let you see it, you can't be willing to stay in the army." Gu Zhenhua said as he turned around and shouted loudly: "Pick up the microscope to Mr. Wu!"

After a while, his subordinates held a mahogany box and brought it to Gu Zhenhua. Seeing the box open, Gu Zhenhua took out something and placed it in front of Wu Youke. This thing was more than one foot high, and it looked like a monocular lens, which was mounted on a metal shelf. Wu Youke was confused.

When Gu Zhenhua saw the old man's eyes straightened, he couldn't help but smile proudly: "Mr. Wu, this thing is similar to a telescope, but you don't see the distance, but the little thing!"

When Wu Youke heard this, he couldn't help asking, "How small can it be?"

"Small enough for human eyes to see!"

"Take it seriously?" Wu Youke asked in surprise?

"I don't dare to lie to sir."

"Hurry, let me demonstrate it." Wu Youke grabbed Gu Zhenhua and used extra strength. The energy in his eyes was even more crazy than the young man who saw the goddess!

When Gu Zhenhua saw the old man like this, he was also secretly proud and hurriedly showed the old man how to use it.

In fact, primitive microscopes appeared one after another in the West at this time. Gu Zhenhua asked Tang Johnson to make one, but not only Lao Tang had never seen it, but he was still determined to keep his hands on it, just shook his head.

However, among the missionaries brought by Lao Tang, there were those who could grind lenses. Gu Zhenhua also understood the principle of microscopes, so he temporarily removed the lenses of two telescopes. After some grinding, he finally made this microscope.

"Hurry up, why are young people so slow?!" Wu Youke became more and more anxious as he thought about it. He scratched his ears and foreheads, and even blamed Gu Zhenhua.

"Mr. Wu, doing academic research is a rigorous thing, how can you be anxious!" Gu Zhenhua felt secretly happy and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Old man, it's time to beg me!

"Mr. Wu, please see!"

Wu Youke hurriedly pressed his eyes on the eyepiece, Gu Zhenhua put a drop of ink underneath, Wu Youke widened his eyes and looked carefully. The old man frowned, smiled foolishly, shook his head and sighed. After a quarter of an hour, Wu Youke let out a long breath and sat on the chair, motionless!

"Mr. Wu, are you scared?"

"Hey, I have lived so old. In Buddhist scriptures, there are 480 million insects in a bowl of water, and 100,000 worlds in a grain of sand. I just think it is a myth. But now, with this microscope, I really see tiny objects that I have never seen in the past. In the past, doctors attributed the cause of the disease to external infection and internal organs. It is said that there are all kinds of qi between heaven and earth, and evil qi is the cause of the disease. I have studied plague for many years and knew that this plague is different from typhoid fever. I searched the intestines and scraped the stomach, and only attributed the cause of the disease to the anger. But now I suddenly realized that perhaps all doctors of all ages have been wrong, and there is something in the world that we cannot see. It is these little things that are the source of the disease."

Wu Youke couldn't help but shook his head and sighed, with a particularly lonely expression. He sighed and said, "Mr., you are so cruel. After looking at this microscope, I'm afraid that all my life has been wrong. What kind of face is called a miracle doctor? I'm so ashamed!"

Gu Zhenhua smiled and said, "Only the feet know whether the shoes fit or not. Mr. Wu has saved so many people over the years, it is not fake. It means that the medical skills left by his ancestors are correct, but after having new tools, we must interpret them from another perspective."

"Thank you, the Grand Duke, for your guidance. You said this thing is similar to a telescope. Could it be that it was also transmitted from the West?"

"There is indeed something similar in the West, but this thing happened to me when I was playing with the telescope. Then I asked the missionaries to help grind it out."

Gu Zhenhua silently calculated that Levinhoek was only in his teens, so the right to invent the microscope belongs to the Chinese!

Wu Youke couldn't help asking: "Dude, the Western Yi actually invented such a wonderful thing. Could it be that their medical skills have surpassed those of the Ming Dynasty?"

"No!" Gu Zhenhua shook his head without hesitation: "The Western barbarians are still far from it. Their main method now is to bleed. No matter whoever is, they will bleed. If they are all bleed, they will bleed. If they are pounded, they will be pounded. If they live, they will be God's appearance, and if they die, they will be summoned by the devil!"

"Although bloodletting can cure diseases, it must be very cautious, and the number cannot be large. The Western Barbarians are simply taking human lives."

"Mr. Wu, don't worry about them for now. This microscope can be given to you, but the premise is that you must serve as the director of the military medical department and help me train doctors and treat plague."

"Give it to me?" Wu Youke's eyes widened again, and the old man immediately picked up the microscope at lightning speed, placed it in the wooden box, and then hugged the box firmly.

"That's all!" The old man hugged the microscope happily and went downstairs.

When he got a miracle doctor, he added a insurance policy for his life safety, and Gu Zhenhua was in a particularly comfortable mood. At this time, Fang Jianming ran over.

"Mr., the road has been repaired, and Luoyang City will also send people to welcome you into the city."

"Well, let's meet the people from Luoyang."

The Anguo army advanced westward and walked for more than a day. Finally, they arrived in Luoyang, twenty miles away from the city. Former Minister of War Zhang Jinyan, Henan Prefect Sang Kaidi, General Ding Qiguang and others came out to greet him.

They already knew that the Duke of Ji did a good job in Kaifeng, for fear that Luoyang would be in trouble, and Gu Zhenhua killed the bandit Li Jiyu as soon as he took action. They were really scared, so they seemed particularly respectful.

"The lower official Zhang Jinyan has met Duke Ji."

Zhang Jinyan was born with a good look. Although he was in his forties, he was elegant and gentle.

Gu Zhenhua smiled and said, "It is no better to know that you can correct your mistakes. Shangshu Zhang, you still have made contributions to restoring Luoyang."

Zhang Jinyan surrendered to Li Zicheng, and he was really afraid that Gu Zhenhua would pursue it. Now, when he heard this, he was like an amnesty, and hurriedly said: "Duke, please prepare a banquet for a while, and ask the Duke to admire the glory."
